Imagine a band that combined everything you liked about rock n’ roll. With songs that would be equally at home on an Austin Powers soundtrack or a Tony Hawk skateboarding video game. From the retro-hip of the mid-60s to the alternative edge of today, The Superficials have mixed their favorite ingredients in a rock n’ roll blender and created an utterly fresh brand of music that can only be described as superficial.

Josh Millman and Michael Page are the main ingredients in this “soup”. Each one is a standout singer/songwriter in their own right, yet their collaborative efforts have created a buzz around this Lennon/McCartney-esque partnership. Seamlessly sharing the lead vocal responsibilities and acting as co-frontmen, Millman and Page have an undeniable chemistry that breaks the confines of the traditional band lineup. They found their Ringo in drummer Rob Nelson, whose powerful pulse and stage antics round out the trio’s personality.

The Superficials’ debut album “oldschool” was lauded for it’s "chiming guitars, buoyant melodies, and sweet harmonies” and its “lushly tuneful gems that linger in the mind” (The Oregonian). The band’s sophomore effort “Everybody’s Girl” received even more critical acclaim. “Simply put, one of the finest indie pop CDs you’ll hear in 2004. Grade A and extremely highly recommended!” (Not Lame Records). “The new CD from Portland, Oregon's The Superficials has it all. Everything from Elvis Costello pop sense to Jellyfish harmonies, as well as the new wave energy of The Knack, which shows just how versatile and talented this band is! An awesome debut from one of the most promising new acts of 2004!” (popbang radio)

Hot on the heels of “Everybody’s Girl”, The Superficials are already back in the studio recording their next full-length album. With their brand new single “Reality TV”, a quirky commentary on America’s current obsession, Millman and Page once again reveal their consistent high standards of excellence. Add the hard-driving “Gasoline”, the sexed-up “Do It All The Time” and the mournful ballad “Hey Candy”, and the indelible voice of The Superficials is loud and clear.

Who’s hearing it? "I need to get into band management because these guys have it...Every song is a hit...They f...in' rock!" (Liz Wilde, national radio personality ). And she’s not the only one who thinks so. "The Superficials kicked my royal butt with their own brand of hard paced originals, cool guitars, and non-stop stage action, great great band indeed!” (Two Louies Magazine). Budweiser seems to thinks so too, having sponsored them as Oregon’s True Music Live band for two years running. Brian Blair of the Oregon Music Guide said “If someone were to tell me that Portland, Oregon’s The Superficials was their favorite band, I wouldn’t be surprised.” With a devoted if not rabid fanbase spreading the word, The Superficials are popping up on radio stations, movie soundtracks, websites, and mp3 playlists from Seattle to Spain.

Reality TV

I was stranded on an island working at a Chevron stationUntil I landed the show that would put me in syndicationI had to run for the plane, it was a bitch to find someone to take usBut at a quarter to eight I caught a 727 to Vegas

Could it be you? Could it be me?Could it be anybody with nothing else to be?It was a half hour showI really want to knowDid you see me on reality TV?

It was a hassle checking in but in an hour I was winning at blackjackBut I was getting kinda hungry so I went to the buffet for a short stackI think it made me kinda queasy so I went up to my room to crashBut I was outta cigarettes so I traded all my chips for cash

Could it be you? Could it be me?Could it be anybody with nothing else to be?It was a half hour showI really want to knowDid you see me on reality TV?

I don't tell this one very often (only maybe once or twice)But once you've started there's no stoppin' meRock with me!

I was standing in the corner smokin' Tijuana with someoneWhen we were busted by the justice who promptly asked us if he could have some (please please pass it to me)So I'm thinkin' I'm Travolta, stinkin' drunk and starting to flirtWhen the man with the Minolta catches me with the girl in the short skirt

Do It All The Time

You used to walk away every time I came byBut now you keep me awake each and every nightI've been waiting for so long babyBut all I ever heard from you was maybe

But now we do it all the timeWe do it every single chance we getWe do it and we smoke another cigaretteYeah we do it all the timeAll the time

I'm looking for some signs from the skies aboveI'm swinging from the vines in your jungle of loveI remember a time way back whenI used to think that it would never happen

But now we do it all the timeWe do it every single chance we getWe do it in the shadows and the silhouettesWe do it and we smoke another cigaretteYeah we do it all the timeAll the timeWe do it all the timeAll the time

You had me feelin' blue- I was 2 foot smallBut then my dreams came true and now we're havin' a ballIt took a while for you to let your hair downBut now the neighbors say we're being too loud

Because now we do it all the timeWe do it every single chance we getWe do it in the back of a Mercedes BenzWe do it in the shadows and the silhouettesWe do it and we smoke another cigaretteYeah we do it all the timeAll the timeWe do it all the timeAll the time
